Poor Katysails.

Rationalizing your poor choice of a place to live when it comes
to sailing fools nobody here who knows what sailing really is.

That means two or three of us. Myself, Joe and Michael.

The remainder think in a similar vein to you. Evade the truth.
Make up excuses. Let your life revolve around a house ashore.

Even Lady Pilot whom many of you deride has realistic dreams
of cruising while you sorry lot only pretend to wish to sail
extensively because pretend is all you can do with your
lack of gumption and nerve to leave the land behind and
become a real sailor.

Katy,

I think Neal's name was simply "Chiguita" but it was in reference to the
Banana song.

Now he is hedging on Mr Everything Right because of time. Not that he
neglected proper use.

I also, Checked his story about the Keel from his own "Web Site" Along
with the pictures, Some of his asinine comments.

His rebuttals really don't have a real Neal way about them, So be it,
they do make interesting comments

How's it feel being high and dry ? I haven't been that way in
thirty-five years.
Luck of the draw on work transfer!

Guess I can't give you the;"I'll drink to that!" You know better but
I'm a happy old man out here.

Neal,
Even the ancient mariners used to come home....to land....get off your high
horse. You don't sail any more than the rest of us do. Quite frankly, after
having viewed the liveaboards in Fort Myers area, I can live without that
type of "sailing". You want to live in that kind of squalor, be my guest.
I imagine Joe lives a great deal better than you do, as does Haggie. They
have decent boats with some size to them. You are no better than a sardine
in a can. It;s amazing your cat doesn't mistake you and serve you up for
dinner with some mustard.

That's right. I spent most of the year sailing. Is that not
demonstrating it. While most of my critics hung out here
talking about sailing, I was out doing it. That's reality.

What is your frame of reference?

Docks and people who store their boats on them are a definite
threat.

Take the Bahamas, for example. The docks draw thieves like
a rotting carcass draws vultures. These thieves eventually
look at anchored boats and attempt to rob them as well.

Docks cause a massive outflow of raw sewage because we
all know people on docks just flush their crap overboard.

Docks are a haven for rats, seagulls, stray dogs and
people with criminal backgrounds who want to evade
the law.

Docks are a hurricane hazard because they often break
up and loose and drift down on anchored boats causing
them to be damaged when they otherwise would have been
quite safe.

Docks are an oily place with people pumping bilge water
and polluting the entire area around the docks.

Docks are noisy and uncivilized.

Need I continue.
